The best Indian movie I have ever seen is a very niche movie called "The Ship of Theseus". In fact, few people have heard of this movie, but the movie still has a very strong quality. It uses a standard three-paragraph structure, and the three paragraphs exist very independently. It connects blind people, monks, young people, people who steal kidneys, people who have cornea transplants, and people who have cirrhosis of the liver and need surgery. The movie is very lively and powerful. It connects the lowest and most marginalized society in India, but judging from the content it expresses, it is extremely "upper-class". It expresses life and death, life and life.
However, only 291 people have watched this movie on Douban, which is pitiful. Niche literary films are the same in any country, they are always on the extreme edge. The film has not received much attention in India. But the degree of completion of a movie is relatively rare. In fact, apart from this one, India's "The Lunchbox", "Court", "Bombay Diaries" and "Bombay Love" are all very outstanding movies.
Indian movies are not self-entertainment as others say. There are also excellent works in niche literary and artistic films. However, due to natural prejudice and lack of effective promotion, such movies are popular both locally and overseas. Didn't get the attention it deserved. But as a semi-filmmaker, it is necessary to popularize such movies to the public.
